The 2026 Chevrolet Trax continues to stand out in the compact SUV segment by delivering all of that in a practical, approachable package.

Whether you're commuting to Winnipeg, running errands around Portage la Prairie, or heading out on a weekend drive, the Trax is designed to make everyday driving comfortable and connected.

Trim Levels Designed for Different Lifestyles

The 2026 Chevrolet Trax is available in multiple trims, each offering its own personality and feature set:

1RS – Sport-inspired styling with unique black and red design accents.

Turbocharged Efficiency for Everyday Driving

The 2026 Trax is powered by a 1.2L ECOTEC turbocharged engine paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. This combination delivers responsive acceleration while maintaining strong fuel efficiency — ideal for Manitoba drivers managing both city and highway kilometres.

Estimated fuel economy (Canada):

• Approximately 8.5 L/100 km city
• Approximately 7.6 L/100 km highway

This makes the Trax a practical choice for daily commuting between Portage la Prairie, Brandon, and Winnipeg.

Interior Comfort and Modern Technology

Inside, the 2026 Trax offers a surprisingly refined and spacious cabin for a compact SUV.

Available features include:

• An 11-inch HD centre touchscreen
• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• Available wireless charging
• Wi-Fi hotspot capability
• Digital driver information display

The interior is designed for flexibility, with 60/40 split-folding rear seats and up to approximately 1,531 litres of cargo space when folded down. That means groceries, sports equipment, or luggage for a weekend getaway can be accommodated with ease.

Standard Chevrolet Safety Assist

Safety remains a priority in the 2026 Trax. Every model includes Chevrolet Safety Assist, a suite of advanced driver assistance technologies such as:

• Forward Collision Alert
• Automatic Emergency Braking
• Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
• IntelliBeam automatic high beams
• Front Pedestrian Braking

Available features like Adaptive Cruise Control and Rear Cross Traffic Alert add further confidence behind the wheel.

For families and new drivers in Manitoba, these features offer added peace of mind in changing road and weather conditions.

Why the 2026 Trax Makes Sense in Manitoba

The Trax continues to gain attention for delivering:

• Strong overall value
• Modern, bold exterior styling
